News Releases - 2007

During the year, Inter Pipeline declared cash distributions totalling $0.8000 per unit. The 2006 taxable portion amounts to $0.6800 per unit or 85.0000% of total cash distributions, while the remaining $0.1200 per unit or 15.0000% is considered a tax-deferred return of capital.

Unitholders holding Class A units within a registered retirement savings plan (RRSP), registered retirement income fund (RRIF), deferred profit sharing plan (DPSP), or a registered education savings plan (RESP) should not report any income related to cash distributions on their 2006 income tax return.  Unitholders holding Class A units outside a RRSP, RRIF, DPSP or RESP are taxable on their share of Inter Pipeline’s income for tax purposes. The tax-deferred portion of the distribution reduces the unitholders’ adjusted cost base of the Class A units. The unitholders’ adjusted cost base is then used in calculating the gain or loss on the disposition of the Class A units by the unitholder.

Unitholders should be aware that their participation in the Distribution Reinvestment Plan and the Optional Unit Purchase Plan does not relieve them of any liability for Federal and Provincial income taxes in Canada.

Although the December 29, 2006 distribution of $0.0700 per unit was paid on January 15, 2007, the taxable portion of this distribution is included in the unitholders’ taxable income for 2006.

Additional 2006 and historical tax information is available on our website at www.interpipelinefund.com under Unitholder Information/Tax Information/2006 Tax Information.

If unitholders have registered their Class A units directly with Inter Pipeline’s registrar and transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company of Canada (Computershare), then Computershare will be responsible for completing and mailing the T5013 or Releve 15 tax form.  If unitholders hold their Class A units beneficially through a brokerage firm, then the brokerage firm will be responsible for completing and mailing the T5013 or Releve 15 form.  Both the T5013 and Releve 15 forms are required to be mailed to unitholders on or before March 31, 2007. 

Inter Pipeline is not responsible for completing or mailing individual T5013 or Releve 15 tax forms.  Unitholders are advised to consult their own tax advisors as to their particular income tax situation regarding tax-related matters.
